As a limited partner, Foxconn has contributed RMB 9.8 billion($1.42 billion) to Xingwei Fund, accounting for 99.99% of the shares.

Foxconn signed relevant agreements with Xingwei Fund, Yantai Haixiu, and Wise Road Capital to transfer the target shares to a third party at a price of not less than RMB5.38 billion or the net value of Shengyue Guangzhou(晟粤广州), a joint venture established by Xingwei Fund, corresponding to the shares held by Xingwei Fund, or other prices agreed by all parties, JW Insights learned.
